The upcoming Sex Education Season 4 has seen several cast exits even before it drops on Netflix, seemingly alluding to the show’s nearing ending. With these departures and a big change after the third season, will the series still be renewed?

The third season ended with Moordale closing for good while Maeve (Emma Mackey) permanently left for the U.S. With these big changes, Sex Education Season 4 may feature a major overhaul.

Sex Education Season 4 Cast Exits

The show has met several main cast exits after members express their interest in leaving the show.

Simone Ashley, Tanya Reynolds, and Patricia Allison will not return to the new season, along with Mackey and Ncuti Gatwa, who will be the next Doctor in Doctor Who Season 14.

The departures seem to suggest that the end is near for the show. But for Screen Rant, it may work as a sign that another season will be in the works.

A Possible Sex Education Renewal

The outlet noted that the cast exit isn’t a bad sign for the show. In fact, it may be a hint that the series may get another season renewal.

If Sex Education will indeed end or be canceled, the actors have no reason to announce their departures.

Hence, with their announcements, there’s a possibility that the show would receive a fifth-season renewal.

Another reason the cast exit announcements may hint that the show will be renewed is that Sex Education Season 4’s filming may have already wrapped, and those cast members know how the new season’s story flows.

This may mean that the upcoming season’s story may end with an open door for the show to continue for another season.

Hence, these character exits may not mean the end of the series yet.

Sex Education Season 4 New and Returning Cast Members

Despite several character exits, Sex Education Season 4 will still see the return of some of the fan-favorite characters.

Of course, Asa Butterfield returns to reprise his role as Otis. He will be joined by Connor Swindells, Alistair Petrie, Kedar Williams-Stirling, George Robinson, Chinenye Ezedu, Dua Saleh, Mimi Keene, and Samantha Spiro.
